In Response To: Strip: Hybrid Ply-Stripper Canoe (ancient kayaker)

The project was interrupted due to ill-health but I am back in the saddle again!

I have added the ply sheer planks with rabbeted outwales to hide the ply edges, also clamps (inwales) and additional short ribs near the stems. The excess rib length has been trimmed and faux ribs added between the real ones to support the clamps and give the scuppered gunnels a better look.

The remaining work includes the breasthooks, external stems, thwart, seat, scraping the glue off - yuck, it's a year old and rock hard - then sanding, sanding, sanding, more sanding and finally the finish. I really like the olde tyme look - it looks so nice I wish I had put a bit more time and better materials into it . . .
